im doing a fetal pig dissection lab and I need help answering this question...
Answer:
The liver in foetuses tends to be shut down, the mother is used to remove most of the toxins from the foetal circulation. The liver (and spleen) is used for red cell production before the marrow kicks in. So I guess the answer is probably, to supply nutrients for cell production.
